Economic sanctions as well as geopolitical situation have set new challenges for Russia. They reflect the necessity of creating an economy that is resistant to both the impact of external, often negative factors, and the need to reformat domestic economic policies. The article deals with the features of the interconnection of the industrial region energy sector and the sustainability of its development. It emphasizes the fact that in the context of an economic crisis the adaptation of regions to new economic conditions is actively influenced by internal factors. The fuel and energy complex is becoming one of the leading domestic resources as well as a catalyst for the related industries. It is noted that unsustainable processes of activating internal regional resources (energy, finance, etc.) hinder achieving sustainable development of the economy.

The difficulties experienced by the Western economies since the middle seventie have given rise to considerable debate among economists. Some, referring to structural changes in the way the economy functions, have no hesitation in speaking of an economic crisis, while others, less pessimistic, consider that the present economic problems are due to the concordance of particular circumstances. The latter, evidently, belong to the dominant current of thought. Within this group we find some old ideas being put forward once more, challenging the various means of State intervention to regulate the economy. The relevance of treating the present situation as one of economic crisis is dealt with here in the light of four inter-related factors : the fall in labor productivity, the slowdown of the impact of technology, fordism, and the profitability of capital. A reconsideration of traditional economic policies brings out the need to accept the requirements of slower economic growth. Many persons have already adopted their consumer behavior to this new situation.

Résumé.En déclenchant une élection provinciale anticipée à l'automne 2008 en pleine crise financière, le premier ministre du Québec, Jean Charest, fit le pari que la population réélirait son gouvernement en raison de sa compétence à gérer la «tempête économique» qui s'annonçait. Cet article cherche à déterminer le poids de la variable économique dans les choix électoraux lors de ce scrutin en exploitant les données d'une enquête d'opinion menée en décembre 2008. Ces données permettent notamment de vérifier à quel point le «vote économique» lors de cette élection en fut un de nature traditionnelle, c'est-à-dire s'appuyant sur les évaluations rétrospectives de l'économie de la part des votants, ou plutôt un de nature prospective, reposant sur les perceptions de la compétence des partis à gérer la crise économique annoncée. Nous analysons également l'effet particulier exercé sur le vote par l'enjeu des pertes de la Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec.Abstract.By calling an early election in the fall of 2008 in the midst of a financial crisis, Quebec Premier Jean Charest hoped that the population would re-elect his government on the basis of its competence at dealing with the upcoming “economic storm.” This article attempts to determine the actual influence that the economy had on Quebeckers' vote choice in that election, with the use of survey data collected in December 2008. The data allows us to verify whether “economic voting” in that election was of a traditional nature, that is based on retrospective assessments of economic conditions, or was more prospective in nature, that is based on perceptions of the parties' competence at managing the economic crisis that would soon follow. The impact on the vote of the issue of the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec's losses is also analyzed.

Abstract In conducting Islamic bank intermediation, internal and external indicator is needed in financial activities. In this research, the indicators that taken into consideration by Islamic bank in the public financial is the economic condition as an external factor. In this particular case the researcher observed the period of the economic crisis of 2008 as the subject year. The second indicator is the basic factor in the form of financial performance which is a controlling factor on the performance of Islamic bank financing. The result of this research explained that the external and internal factors in the decision-making of Islamic banks allocating funds to the public under conditions of economic crisis is influenced by inflation, deposits and net performing financing. The high inflationrate will increase the Islamic bank financing. The impact inflicted by the rising inflation is extra fund for financial needs that must be spent by the Islamic bank due to customers requiring additional funding to support their business operations. Other indicators, the more public funds are collected, hence can be used in distributing the Islamic bank financing. The other indicator is, when more people are taking bad loans during the crisis. The Islamic bank constantly doing the distribution of funding. Those effects occurred because in overcoming the risk of bad loans, the Islamic bank undertakes diversification and supervision toward the disbursed financing. With such undertaking will make the Islamic bank become more selective in determining the financing on public. Keywords: Macroeconomics, Economy Crysis, Financial Performance, Financing   Abstrak Dalam menjalankan intermediasi bank syariah memerlukan indikator internal maupun eksternal dalam melancarkan kegiatan pembiayaan. Dalam penelitian ini, indikator yang menjadi pertimbangan bank syariah dalam pembiayaan kepada masyakarat adalah kondisi perekonomian sebagai faktor eksternal, dalam hal ini peneliti mengamati pada saat kondisi krisis ekonomi tahun 2008 sebagai tahun acuan. Indikator kedua adalah faktor fundamental berupa kinerja keuangan yang merupakan faktor pengendalian kinerja bank syariah terhadap pembiayaan. Hasil penelitian ini menjelaskan bahwa faktor eksternal dan internal bank syariah dalam keputusan menyalurkan dana kepada masyarakat dalam kondisi krisis ekonomi dipengaruhi oleh faktor inflasi, dana pihak ketiga dan net performing financing. Inflasi yang tinggi akan meningkatkan pembiayaan bank syariah. Akibat yang ditimbulkan dari meningkatnya inflasi adalah adanya tambahan dana pembiayaan yang harus dikeluarkan bank syariah dikarenakan nasabah pembiayaan membutuhkan tambahan biaya untuk menunjang kegiatan usahanya. Indikator lainnya, semakin banyak dana masyarakat yang terkumpul maka dapat digunakan bank syariah dalam menyalurkan pembiayaan. Indikator lainnya, ketika kredit macet mengalami kenaikan saat krisis maka bank syariah tetap melakukan penyaluran pembiayaan. Pengaruh tersebut terjadi karena bank syariah dalam mengatasi peningkatan risiko kredit macet melakukan diversifikasi dan pengawasan terhadap pembiayaan yang disalurkan, Dengan adanya upaya tersebut akan membuat bank syariah lebih selektif dalam memutuskan pembiayaan kepada masyarakat. Kata kunci: Ekonomi Makro, Krisis Ekonomi, Kinerja Keuangan, Pembiayaan.

Purpose: The aim of the chapter is to compare the declarations of local and international companies regarding the maintenance of sustainable development initiatives during acrisis. Design/methodology/approach: The article presents the results of a survey conducted in September 2020 on a sample of 500 enterprises located in Poland. Respondents were asked to declare if they will maintain or abandon sustainable development initiatives in a crisis situation. The examples presented a pandemic similar to the one caused by Covid-19, an economic crisis, or a significant decrease in company revenues. Findings: The research showed that the largest group of companies in acrisis situation will completely abandon their initiatives in the field of sustainable development. Another group will give up those initiatives that generate the highest cost. There are some small differences in responses of local and international companies. Companies with foreign entities in the ownership structure seems less likely to give up all initiatives in the field of sustainable development. International companies more often than local companies declare that they do not know which initiatives they will abandon and which will they keep. Research limitations/implications: Factors other than international involvement (e.g. company size, strategic approach to sustainable development) may have a decisive impact on decisions regarding the maintenance of sustainable development initiatives in acrisis. Originality and value: The chapter illustrates the approach to sustainable development by companies classified into various categories: local and international.

The article analyzes approaches to the disclosure of the essence of the modern concept of sustainable municipal development. The key factors of sustainable development of the municipality are highlighted, among which are fidelity of goal setting, the correct consideration of strengths and weaknesses, and the efficiency of development of municipal enterprises. It was revealed that the leaders of many municipalities are not interested in transforming municipal enterprises into private ones. The conclusion is made about the dual nature of the functioning of municipal enterprises: on the one hand, a municipal enterprise is a commercial organization that should be aimed at maximizing profits, and, on the other hand, it is an instrument of municipal economic policy that makes it possible to smooth out the shortcomings of federal and regional economic policies.

Sustainable development needs to be considered both at the macro and micro level. World history has been developing over an enormous number of years. During this period, the considerable power of the economy and its globalization is shown. The development tendencies of the present world have greatly influenced the original appearance of our planet and its aspects, such as humanity, nature, and the connections of various kinds of systems. All this leads to the understanding that the possibilities of nature to maintain a balance are not unlimited. The economy closely interacts with nature, which what determines the relevance and importance of the sustainability of modern companies and the balance of economic, social and environmental aspects of development for any company. The conditions of functioning of real-time economic entities determine the priority and relevance of the tasks of ensuring their sustainable development, which is due to the constant impact of objective and multidirectional factors of micro and macro level economy. The impact of external and internal factors remains unchanged and can lead to a violation of the stability of the state of the company if it is not prepared for them, and, therefore, is not able to resist them. In turn, the sustainability of a company’s development is characterized by its ability to function effectively and develop when external and internal conditions change. The strategic goal of sustainable development is to ensure the longest and healthiest possible existence for us and our generation, due to the competent combination and interaction between economic, social and environmental aspects that cover our lives, preserve the natural potential and technological capabilities and form certain benefits for humanity as a whole
